Northern Ireland’s Department of Justice has invited members of the public to have their say on ideas and priorities to include in a strategy to help improve the experiences of victims and witnesses when engaging with the criminal justice system.
The Department of Justice would like to hear from members of the public, from community and voluntary organisations, and from anyone with an interest in and knowledge of the victim and witness experience.
In particular, those with experience of being a victim of or witness to crime are being asked to respond to the call for views, which will help the Department of Justice develop a new victim and witness strategy for 2025–2030.
A full public consultation on the strategy will be launched in January 2025.
The closing date for submitting views is 29 November 2024. Responses can be submitted online via Citizen Space or the Department of Justice website.
